Hey, it's the scene from Blazing Saddles!

I just about split a gut when they brought Clint Eastwood into the Judge's office in the beginning. I had never seen this movie before, but I've seen Blazing Saddles a million times, and they took the scene where Harvey Korman looks out his window at the endless line of men - and horses - about to be hung as they bring in Cleavon Little. Well done, Mel Brooks!

I want the doctor to take your picture so I can look at you from inside as well.

You do know that BZ was made about 6 years AFTER Hang 'Em High? It was BZ that borrowed that scene, not vice versa.

Yes, of course. But I had never seen Hang 'Em High, while Blazing Saddles was emblazoned on my brain.
